I don't want to be a pc dweeb here but where the hell does this 400 years of slavery come from. According to my math the civil war ended in 1865. 400 from 1865 leaves 1465. Columbus that Portugese opressor didn't get here till 1492.

The Arabs were running slave rings since before the Romans.... The Jews had slaves, and were slaves before the Greeks had writing. Earlier, slavery existed since the Babalonians (-1 sp) and Egyptians in 3000 Bc.
Islam merely continued the trend in 700AD. They (the blacks, the Arabs) still run slavery trade cultures now in Africa.
Today's blacks have NO POWER and nothing to advance their agenda without a constant reference to slavery 150 years ago.

Yes that 400 years figure caught my eye too. But I guess in Ethnic Studies simple arithmemtic is not emphasized too much. And he speaks Swahili? How the hell would anyone know?
